Paging Dan Debrunner

Hi Dan,

Todd Williams forwarded the following email from the archives. It says 
that IBM folks had been working on a pluggable indexing scheme and you 
were looking into donating some of this code to the community. Do you 
know where this stands?

Thanks,
-Rick

It was awhile ago, and I thought I had sent a message.
As Dan said the code was incomplete (I would say only about 25% of
the store side work and none of language side work like functional
indexes or sql standard user defined types), and no longer even
compiled sinceit did not match new interfaces.

I thought Mike had sent out e-mail in that discussion (a long time ago)
that the prototype code was very incomplete, coded against Cloudscape
5.x and not worth releasing. So IBM has no plans to contribute the code.
